Local man paralyzed in 2009 talks about robotic exoskeleton that allows him to walk

COLDWATER - At the end of 2009, Todd Reigelsperger learned he was a paraplegic and was told he'd never walk again.

Since then, the young man has skydived out of an airplane twice, can be seen regularly walking throughout town and has just returned from a trek of the West Coast, where he drove from Oakland, California, to Seattle, Washington. Reigelsperger is now preparing to participate in his first 5K on Saturday morning during Zuma Days. [More]
